Republicans in the House have finally released a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare: the American HealthCareAct. The GOP healthcare bill keeps some of the most popular parts of Obamacare, like letting young adults stay on their parents' health insurance until age 26 and requiring insurance companies to cover people with pre-existing conditions.
But the Republican bill gets rid of the key element that made Obamacare work: the individual mandate. Now that people aren't required to have insurance, healthy people could leave insurance pools en masse, leaving sick people who are more expensive to cover.
Hypocrisy is a minor sin in politics, but still, it is remarkable how much of it there is to be found in this legislation. A core Republican complaint when Obamacare was passed was that the law delayed many of its provisions in order to reduce public outcry and manipulate the CBO’s score. The GOP bill is similarly aggressive with such tricks, delaying changes to the Medicaid expansion until 2020 and pushing Obamacare’s tax on expensive insurance plans out until 2025.
Because Republicans aren’t even trying to win Democratic votes, they’re stuck designing a bill that can wiggle through the budget reconciliation process (another thing they complained about Democrats doing). That means they can’t make major changes to insurance markets like repealing Obamacare’s essential benefit standards or allowing insurance to be sold across state lines. That last part is particularly striking, given that it was one of PresidentTrump’s five demands in his speech last week. I’ve always been skeptical about the savings Republicans could wrest by changing those regulations, but now they can’t get those savings at all — which means sacrificing a key part of their theory of cost control.
This bill has a lot of problems, and more will come clear as experts study its language, the Congressional Budget Office release its estimates, and industry players make themselves heard. But the biggest problem this bill has is that it’s not clear why it exists. What does it make better? What is it even trying to achieve? Democrats wanted to cover more people and reduce long-term costs, and they had an argument for how their bill did both. As far as I can tell, Republicans have neither. At best, you can say this bill makes every obvious health care metric a bit worse, but at least it cuts taxes on rich people? Is that really a winning argument in American politics?
In reality, what I think we’re seeing here is Republicans trying desperately to come up with something that would allow them to repeal and replace Obamacare. This is a compromise of a compromise of a compromise aimed at fulfilling that promise. But “repeal and replace” is a political slogan, not a policy goal. This is a lot of political pain to endure for a bill that won’t improve many peoples’ lives, but will badly hurt millions.

Republicans keep trotting out new plans to take away health care and Americans keep hating them. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://www.tytnetwork.com/join
"With their deadline fast approaching, Senate Republicans’ rush to repeal and replace Obamacare remains as unpopular as ever with the public.
Only 24 percent of Americans support Graham-Cassidy, the health care bill Republicans are furiously whipping to pass ahead of September 30, according to a new poll released Thursday by Public Policy Polling. The poll is the first to date of the proposed legislation, which would cripple Obamacare’s exchanges and sharply cut long-term Medicaid spending while also taking billions of funding from blue states that implemented Obamacare and giving it to red ones that did not.
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) has promised that the bill will result in more people having insurance. Most Americans do not believe him. Majorities believe that Graham-Cassidy would instead both raise health care costs for most Americans and result in fewer Americans obtaining coverage. Only 20 percent said they thought the bill would cover more Americans.”*

Republican supporters of the healthcare bill in the Senate are dropping like flies, so Republican leadership decided to throw a few extra bonuses into the legislation for the states of the holdouts. This tactic isn’t likely to work, as their opposition is based on the general effects of the bill, not on it lacking any personal incentives. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Republicans in the U.S. Senate only have one week left to pass their disastrous health care law before they have to finalize the budget and get that passed with or without this health care legislation that they have tacked on as kind of an amendment-type thing to the bill. It's not a standalone; it's part of the budget bill. But since they continue to lose Republican support so far with Collins, Murkowski, McCain, and now even Ted Cruz and Rand Paul saying they're probably not going to support this piece of legislation, Republicans in the Senate have decided that if we can't win your vote with good policy, we're going to win it with bribery, and that is exactly what they're doing.
Late Sunday night, Republicans in the Senate came back, started rewriting some portions of this health care law to include massive giveaways in the form of tax breaks to the states where the senators who oppose the legislation come from, specifically, Maine, Alaska, Arizona, possibly even Texas. Basically, what they're trying to do here is say, "If you pass this legislation, we're going to give you a little bit more money for your state. You know, here, it's not a bribe because it's part of the legislation, but once it gets passed, there's all of this money on the table, and I guess you should probably walk away with that and take it back to your state."
Now this, again, perfectly legal form of bribery is one of the lowest insults that you could possibly imagine for these senators who are opposed to the current version of the health care law, because their opposition has nothing to do with the fact that they're not getting anything for their states. It has to do with the fact that they're not completely comfortable with passing a piece of legislation (1) that half the Senate hasn’t even read yet, (2) that the president doesn’t even know what's in it, (3) that doesn’t have a CBO score, and (4) and most importantly, that it's going to kick off 32 million people from their health insurance and result in tens of thousands of deaths by the year 2027 due to people not having health insurance coverage to be able to go treat conditions.
That’s what makes them a little leery to sign on to support this legislation, and if the little bit of money that you're offering them is enough to go ahead and make them sign off on it, I doubt it's going to be enough to save their careers because it's pretty much a given that some of these Republicans who are opposed to it, some of them who are a little bit more moderate, will end up losing their jobs as a result of this vote once it turns out that this thing is as horrible as every analyst who's looked at it has said it is.
This legislation, according to analysis, is going to kill people. People will die from this legislation. That is the intent of it. It's not like, "Oh, accidentally we had some casualties here." Stripping people of their health insurance coverage, 32 million people to be exact, including 20 million children, yeah, they're going to die. If you can't afford your EpiPen because your insurance no longer covers it because you don’t have insurance and you have an allergic reaction, you die. If you have diabetes and you can't afford your insulin because you don’t have health insurance anymore, you die. If you have asthma and you have a severe asthma attack, but you don’t have an inhaler because you couldn’t afford it because you don’t have insurance, you can die.
That’s the bottom line here, folks. That is what we're dealing with. This isn't hyperbole. This isn't conflating the argument. This is what happens, and it still happens to people every single day in this country, and Republicans want it to happen even more, but a few of them have enough sense ... Some, they're only doing it for political reasons. Others, because maybe they're trying to save their legacy. Whatever the reason at this point, this piece of legislation should be the only thing that dies when we talk about health care coverage in the United States.

Jimmy Kimmel

James Christian "Jimmy" Kimmel (born November 13, 1967) is an American television host, producer, writer, comedian, voice actor, musician and radio personality. He is the host and executive producer of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, a late-night talk show that premiered on ABC in 2003. Kimmel also hosted the 64th Primetime Emmy Awards on September 23, 2012.

Early life

Kimmel was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in the neighborhood of Mill Basin the eldest of three children of Joan (née Iacono), a homemaker, and James John Kimmel, an IBM executive.

He is, and was raised, Catholic, and as a child served as an altar boy. Kimmel's mother is of Italian ancestry; two of his paternal great-great-grandparents were German emigrants, and his family's surname was "Kümmel" several generations back. The family moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, when he was nine years old. He graduated from Ed W. Clark High School.

For its first ten years, the show aired at either the Midnight or 12:05 AM timeslot before moving to 11:35 pm ET beginning on January 8, 2013 to more directly compete with The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Late Show with David Letterman while bumping the ABC nightly news program Nightline to 12:35 am ET. Following the subsequent retirements of Leno in February 2014 and Letterman in May 2015, Kimmel is now the longest serving host in network late-night television.

Access to health care varies across countries, groups, and individuals, largely influenced by social and economic conditions as well as the health policies in place. Countries and jurisdictions have different policies and plans in relation to the personal and population-based health care goals within their societies. Health care systems are organizations established to meet the health needs of target populations. Their exact configuration varies between national and subnational entities. In some countries and jurisdictions, health care planning is distributed among market participants, whereas in others, planning occurs more centrally among governments or other coordinating bodies. In all cases, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), a well-functioning health care system requires a robust financing mechanism; a well-trained and adequately-paid workforce; reliable information on which to base decisions and policies; and well maintained health facilities and logistics to deliver quality medicines and technologies.

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Due to a manipulation of Senate rules, Republicans have created a healthcare bill that will only be open for debate on the Senate floor for about 90 seconds – possibly as long as 2 minutes if things get crazy. This bill could strip more than 30 million of their health insurance coverage and destroy Medicaid, and the best the Republicans are willing to give us is 2 minutes. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how this is possible.

Republicans at the US Senate are still working to pass their destructive healthcare bill, specifically the Graham-Cassidy Amendment that would not only repeal the Affordable Care Act, it would put in place a series of provisions that has been called Trumpcare 3.0. Now, you would think that such a huge piece of legislation would get a lot of time to debate. You would think that they would want people to talk about this bill, to understand this bill, to analyze it, and figure out what the hell it's actually going to do to the American public.
And that is why Republicans have used this very specific rule to limit debate on this bill to 90 seconds. That's right, this piece of legislation that has the potential to strip 32 million American citizens of their health insurance is going to be debated for 90 seconds, possibly as long as two minutes. It might get an extra 30 seconds in there if things get really crazy, but they do not have any longer than two minutes to talk about this bill. Why? Because they're using this bill as part of the budget reconciliation act. It is not a necessarily a standalone piece of legislation, they're tacking it into the budget. And unfortunately, time for debate on the budget has completely run out, so they only have two minutes according to their own rules to debate this bill and give the public the facts.
The problem is, most Republicans in the Senate, including those who actually support it, still don't know what's in the actual legislation. Vox did interviews with nine different Republican senators, and not a single one of them could accurately say what was in this legislation. The Democrats don't know because they didn't let them be part of the drafting process. There's been no debate, so nobody brought this to anybody's attention, but the fact of the matter is that Republicans are so desperate to repeal the Affordable Care Act, that they're pushing a piece of legislation that has not been scored by the CBO, that they don't even know what's in, and they're only going to allow us 90 seconds of a floor debate in the US Senate.
What we do know from the piece of legislation is that it would essentially end Medicaid as we know it. Medicaid would be gone. They're going to roll back the Medicaid expansion, cut the funding for it, and then give the money for Medicaid to the states, at which point the states can either chose to spend that money on Medicaid, or anything else that they want. There's no provision tying them to have to spend that money on Medicaid, thereby we can deduce, since Republicans seem to hate Medicaid, that they're not going to spend it on there. 30 million children in the United States and half of all of the birth in these United States are covered by Medicaid. Suddenly, if this piece of legislation passes, 30 million children in the United States no longer have insurance. Half of the births in this country will no longer be covered by any form of insurance.
What is that going to do to our health? It's going to result in more dead children. That's the bottom line. That is the only way to put that. Children won't be able to go to the doctor, they won't be able to get medicine, half the people in this country might not be able to afford to go to a hospital to give birth. They'll have to give birth at home or somewhere else, anywhere else. Turn to more dangerous practices in order to give birth that aren't going to give their children the proper care that they need right after they are born. People will die because of this Republican bill. These idiotic Republican senators don't even know what's in the legislation, and yet they're rushing to ram this down our throats, because they hate President Obama. That is the bottom line here. They want to hurt children because they hate Obama.

The latest Republican effort to repeal and replace Obamacare is essentially dead after four GOP senators came out against it.

Here's What The GOP's Graham-Cassidy Health Bill Would Do To Healthcare In America

All eyes are on Capitol Hill where SenateRepublicans are desperate to come up with 50 votes to pass a controversial and unpopular healthcare bill that would do away with the Affordable Care Act.
The Graham-Cassidy bill will allow states to opt out of covering pre-existing conditions one of the most popular features of the Affordable Care Act, though states have to explain how they "intend" to keep those people covered.

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel on Monday suggested that Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) fails the “Jimmy Kimmel test” on health care.
“On health care, Cassidy flunks his own ‘Jimmy Kimmel test,'” the host tweeted, along with a link to an op-ed in The Washington Post.
Kimmel's tweet comes amid a new GOP effort to repeal ObamaCare led by Cassidy and Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.). The bill, which would replace much of ObamaCare with block grants for states, is gaining steam in the Senate, and the Congressional Budget Office will release a “preliminary assessment” of the bill next week.
Kimmel was referencing a phrase coined by Cassidy in May, in which Cassidy said the Senate Republicans’ plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare should “pass the Jimmy Kimmel test.”
"I ask, does it pass the Jimmy Kimmel test? Will a child born with congenital heart disease be able to get everything she or he would need in the first year of life? I want it to pass the Jimmy Kimmel test," Cassidy told CNN at the time, when asked if he could support a plan that included yearly or annual insurance caps.
Kimmel made an impassioned plea in support of ObamaCare on his show in May as he revealed his son was born that week with a heart defect.

Jimmy Kimmel Grateful Health Care Bill is Dead

There was great relief for many millions of Americans as we found out that the Graham-Cassidy Bill, that Jimmy has been speaking out against, is dead. Jimmy sends his sincere thanks to those who called their representatives, made their voices heard, and got involved to help make sure this bill didn’t pass. Jimmy also talks about why we all must work together to make a health care system that truly works for everyone, and he addresses Donald Trump’s attack against Senator John McCain and illustrates how Trump repeatedly contradicts himself.

POLLS: America HATES Graham-Cassidy Healthcare Bill

Republicans keep trotting out new plans to take away health care and Americans keep hating them. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://www.tytnetwork.com/join
"With their deadline fast approaching, Senate Republicans’ rush to repeal and replace Obamacare remains as unpopular as ever with the public.

Republicans Make Their Healthcare Bill Even Worse To Win Over Senate Holdouts

Republican supporters of the healthcare bill in the Senate are dropping like flies, so Republican leadership decided to throw a few extra bonuses into the legislation for the states of the holdouts. This tactic isn’t likely to work, as their opposition is based on the general effects of the bill, not on it lacking any personal incentives. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Due to a manipulation of Senate rules, Republicans have created a healthcare bill that will only be open for debate on the Senate floor for about 90 seconds – possibly as long as 2 minutes if things get crazy. This bill could strip more than 30 million of their health insurance coverage and destroy Medicaid, and the best the Republicans are willing to give us is 2 minutes. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how this is possible.

Republicans in the House have finally released a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare: the American HealthCareAct. The GOP healthcare bill keeps some of the most popular parts of Obamacare, like letting young adults stay on their parents' health insurance until age 26 and requiring insurance companies to cover people with pre-existing conditions.
But the Republican bill gets rid of the key element that made Obamacare work: the individual mandate. Now that people aren't required to have insurance, healthy people could leave insurance pools en masse, leaving sick people who are more expensive to cover.
Hypocrisy is a minor sin in politics, but still, it is remarkable how much of it there is to be found in this legislation. A core Republican complaint when Obamacare was passed was that the law delayed many of its provisions in order to reduce public outcry and manipulate the CBO’s score. The GOP bill is similarly aggressive with such tricks, delaying changes to the Medicaid expansion until 2020 and pushing Obamacare’s tax on expensive insurance plans out until 2025.
Because Republicans aren’t even trying to win Democratic votes, they’re stuck designing a bill that can wiggle through the budget reconciliation process (another thing they complained about Democrats doing). That means they can’t make major changes to insurance markets like repealing Obamacare’s essential benefit standards or allowing insurance to be sold across state lines. That last part is particularly striking, given that it was one of PresidentTrump’s five demands in his speech last week. I’ve always been skeptical about the savings Republicans could wrest by changing those regulations, but now they can’t get those savings at all — which means sacrificing a key part of their theory of cost control.
This bill has a lot of problems, and more will come clear as experts study its language, the Congressional Budget Office release its estimates, and industry players make themselves heard. But the biggest problem this bill has is that it’s not clear why it exists. What does it make better? What is it even trying to achieve? Democrats wanted to cover more people and reduce long-term costs, and they had an argument for how their bill did both. As far as I can tell, Republicans have neither. At best, you can say this bill makes every obvious health care metric a bit worse, but at least it cuts taxes on rich people? Is that really a winning argument in American politics?
In reality, what I think we’re seeing here is Republicans trying desperately to come up with something that would allow them to repeal and replace Obamacare. This is a compromise of a compromise of a compromise aimed at fulfilling that promise. But “repeal and replace” is a political slogan, not a policy goal. This is a lot of political pain to endure for a bill that won’t improve many peoples’ lives, but will badly hurt millions.

This is a compromise of a compromise of a compromise aimed at fulfilling that promise. But “repeal and replace” is a political slogan, not a policy goal. This is a lot of political pain to endure for a bill that won’t improve many peoples’ lives, but will badly hurt millions.

Republicans keep trotting out new plans to take away health care and Americans keep hating them. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://www.tytnetwork.com/join
"With their deadline fast approaching, Senate Republicans’ rush to repeal and replace Obamacare remains as unpopular as ever with the public.
Only 24 percent of Americans support Graham-Cassidy, the health care bill Republicans are furiously whipping to pass ahead of September 30, according to a new poll released Thursday by Public Policy Polling. The poll is the first to date of the proposed legislation, which would cripple Obamacare’s exchanges and sharply cut long-term Medicaid spending while also taking billions of funding from blue states that implemented Obamacare and giving it to red ones that did not.
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) has promised that the bill will result in more people having insurance. Most Americans do not believe him. Majorities believe that Graham-Cassidy would instead both raise health care costs for most Americans and result in fewer Americans obtaining coverage. Only 20 percent said they thought the bill would cover more Americans.”*

Republican supporters of the healthcare bill in the Senate are dropping like flies, so Republican leadership decided to throw a few extra bonuses into the legislation for the states of the holdouts. This tactic isn’t likely to work, as their opposition is based on the general effects of the bill, not on it lacking any personal incentives. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Republicans in the U.S. Senate only have one week left to pass their disastrous health care law before they have to finalize the budget and get that passed with or without this health care legislation that they have tacked on as kind of an amendment-type thing to the bill. It's not a standalone; it's part of the budget bill. But since they continue to lose Republican support so far with Collins, Murkowski, McCain, and now even Ted Cruz and Rand Paul saying they're probably not going to support this piece of legislation, Republicans in the Senate have decided that if we can't win your vote with good policy, we're going to win it with bribery, and that is exactly what they're doing.
Late Sunday night, Republicans in the Senate came back, started rewriting some portions of this health care law to include massive giveaways in the form of tax breaks to the states where the senators who oppose the legislation come from, specifically, Maine, Alaska, Arizona, possibly even Texas. Basically, what they're trying to do here is say, "If you pass this legislation, we're going to give you a little bit more money for your state. You know, here, it's not a bribe because it's part of the legislation, but once it gets passed, there's all of this money on the table, and I guess you should probably walk away with that and take it back to your state."
Now this, again, perfectly legal form of bribery is one of the lowest insults that you could possibly imagine for these senators who are opposed to the current version of the health care law, because their opposition has nothing to do with the fact that they're not getting anything for their states. It has to do with the fact that they're not completely comfortable with passing a piece of legislation (1) that half the Senate hasn’t even read yet, (2) that the president doesn’t even know what's in it, (3) that doesn’t have a CBO score, and (4) and most importantly, that it's going to kick off 32 million people from their health insurance and result in tens of thousands of deaths by the year 2027 due to people not having health insurance coverage to be able to go treat conditions.
That’s what makes them a little leery to sign on to support this legislation, and if the little bit of money that you're offering them is enough to go ahead and make them sign off on it, I doubt it's going to be enough to save their careers because it's pretty much a given that some of these Republicans who are opposed to it, some of them who are a little bit more moderate, will end up losing their jobs as a result of this vote once it turns out that this thing is as horrible as every analyst who's looked at it has said it is.
This legislation, according to analysis, is going to kill people. People will die from this legislation. That is the intent of it. It's not like, "Oh, accidentally we had some casualties here." Stripping people of their health insurance coverage, 32 million people to be exact, including 20 million children, yeah, they're going to die. If you can't afford your EpiPen because your insurance no longer covers it because you don’t have insurance and you have an allergic reaction, you die. If you have diabetes and you can't afford your insulin because you don’t have health insurance anymore, you die. If you have asthma and you have a severe asthma attack, but you don’t have an inhaler because you couldn’t afford it because you don’t have insurance, you can die.
That’s the bottom line here, folks. That is what we're dealing with. This isn't hyperbole. This isn't conflating the argument. This is what happens, and it still happens to people every single day in this country, and Republicans want it to happen even more, but a few of them have enough sense ... Some, they're only doing it for political reasons. Others, because maybe they're trying to save their legacy. Whatever the reason at this point, this piece of legislation should be the only thing that dies when we talk about health care coverage in the United States.

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Due to a manipulation of Senate rules, Republicans have created a healthcare bill that will only be open for debate on the Senate floor for about 90 seconds – possibly as long as 2 minutes if things get crazy. This bill could strip more than 30 million of their health insurance coverage and destroy Medicaid, and the best the Republicans are willing to give us is 2 minutes. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how this is possible.

Republicans at the US Senate are still working to pass their destructive healthcare bill, specifically the Graham-Cassidy Amendment that would not only repeal the Affordable Care Act, it would put in place a series of provisions that has been called Trumpcare 3.0. Now, you would think that such a huge piece of legislation would get a lot of time to debate. You would think that they would want people to talk about this bill, to understand this bill, to analyze it, and figure out what the hell it's actually going to do to the American public.
And that is why Republicans have used this very specific rule to limit debate on this bill to 90 seconds. That's right, this piece of legislation that has the potential to strip 32 million American citizens of their health insurance is going to be debated for 90 seconds, possibly as long as two minutes. It might get an extra 30 seconds in there if things get really crazy, but they do not have any longer than two minutes to talk about this bill. Why? Because they're using this bill as part of the budget reconciliation act. It is not a necessarily a standalone piece of legislation, they're tacking it into the budget. And unfortunately, time for debate on the budget has completely run out, so they only have two minutes according to their own rules to debate this bill and give the public the facts.
The problem is, most Republicans in the Senate, including those who actually support it, still don't know what's in the actual legislation. Vox did interviews with nine different Republican senators, and not a single one of them could accurately say what was in this legislation. The Democrats don't know because they didn't let them be part of the drafting process. There's been no debate, so nobody brought this to anybody's attention, but the fact of the matter is that Republicans are so desperate to repeal the Affordable Care Act, that they're pushing a piece of legislation that has not been scored by the CBO, that they don't even know what's in, and they're only going to allow us 90 seconds of a floor debate in the US Senate.
What we do know from the piece of legislation is that it would essentially end Medicaid as we know it. Medicaid would be gone. They're going to roll back the Medicaid expansion, cut the funding for it, and then give the money for Medicaid to the states, at which point the states can either chose to spend that money on Medicaid, or anything else that they want. There's no provision tying them to have to spend that money on Medicaid, thereby we can deduce, since Republicans seem to hate Medicaid, that they're not going to spend it on there. 30 million children in the United States and half of all of the birth in these United States are covered by Medicaid. Suddenly, if this piece of legislation passes, 30 million children in the United States no longer have insurance. Half of the births in this country will no longer be covered by any form of insurance.
What is that going to do to our health? It's going to result in more dead children. That's the bottom line. That is the only way to put that. Children won't be able to go to the doctor, they won't be able to get medicine, half the people in this country might not be able to afford to go to a hospital to give birth. They'll have to give birth at home or somewhere else, anywhere else. Turn to more dangerous practices in order to give birth that aren't going to give their children the proper care that they need right after they are born. People will die because of this Republican bill. These idiotic Republican senators don't even know what's in the legislation, and yet they're rushing to ram this down our throats, because they hate President Obama. That is the bottom line here. They want to hurt children because they hate Obama.

All eyes are on Capitol Hill where SenateRepublicans are desperate to come up with 50 votes to pass a controversial and unpopular healthcare bill that would do away with the Affordable Care Act.
The Graham-Cassidy bill will allow states to opt out of covering pre-existing conditions one of the most popular features of the Affordable Care Act, though states have to explain how they "intend" to keep those people covered.

All eyes are on Capitol Hill where SenateRepublicans are desperate to come up with 50 votes to pass a controversial and unpopular healthcare bill that would do away with the Affordable Care Act.
The Graham-Cassidy bill will allow states to opt out of covering pre-existing conditions one of the most popular features of the Affordable Care Act, though states have to explain how they "intend" to keep those people covered.

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel on Monday suggested that Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) fails the “Jimmy Kimmel test” on health care.
“On health care, Cassidy flunks his own ‘Jimmy Kimmel test,'” the host tweeted, along with a link to an op-ed in The Washington Post.
Kimmel's tweet comes amid a new GOP effort to repeal ObamaCare led by Cassidy and Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.). The bill, which would replace much of ObamaCare with block grants for states, is gaining steam in the Senate, and the Congressional Budget Office will release a “preliminary assessment” of the bill next week.
Kimmel was referencing a phrase coined by Cassidy in May, in which Cassidy said the Senate Republicans’ plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare should “pass the Jimmy Kimmel test.”
"I ask, does it pass the Jimmy Kimmel test? Will a child born with congenital heart disease be able to get everything she or he would need in the first year of life? I want it to pass the Jimmy Kimmel test," Cassidy told CNN at the time, when asked if he could support a plan that included yearly or annual insurance caps.
Kimmel made an impassioned plea in support of ObamaCare on his show in May as he revealed his son was born that week with a heart defect.

The Republican health care bill makes no sense

The bill doesn’t know what problem it’s trying to solve.

Republicans in the House have finally released a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare: the American HealthCareAct. The GOP healthcare bill keeps some of the most popular parts of Obamacare, like letting young adults stay on their parents' health insurance until age 26 and requiring insurance companies to cover people with pre-existing conditions.
But the Republican bill gets rid of the key element that made Obamacare work: the individual mandate. Now that people aren't required to have insurance, healthy people could leave insurance pools en masse, leaving sick people who are more expensive to cover.
Hypocrisy is a minor sin in politics, but still, it is remarkable how much of it there is to be found in this legislation. A core Republican complaint when Obamacare was passed was that the law delayed many of its provisions in order to reduce public outcry and manipulate the CBO’s score. The GOP bill is similarly aggressive with such tricks, delaying changes to the Medicaid expansion until 2020 and pushing Obamacare’s tax on expensive insurance plans out until 2025.
Because Republicans aren’t even trying to win Democratic votes, they’re stuck designing a bill that can wiggle through the budget reconciliation process (another thing they complained about Democrats doing). That means they can’t make major changes to insurance markets like repealing Obamacare’s essential benefit standards or allowing insurance to be sold across state lines. That last part is particularly striking, given that it was one of PresidentTrump’s five demands in his speech last week. I’ve always been skeptical about the savings Republicans could wrest by changing those regulations, but now they can’t get those savings at all — which means sacrificing a key part of their theory of cost control.
This bill has a lot of problems, and more will come clear as experts study its language, the Congressional Budget Office release its estimates, and industry players make themselves heard. But the biggest problem this bill has is that it’s not clear why it exists. What does it make better? What is it even trying to achieve? Democrats wanted to cover more people and reduce long-term costs, and they had an argument for how their bill did both. As far as I can tell, Republicans have neither. At best, you can say this bill makes every obvious health care metric a bit worse, but at least it cuts taxes on rich people? Is that really a winning argument in American politics?
In reality, what I think we’re seeing here is Republicans trying desperately to come up with something that would allow them to repeal and replace Obamacare. This is a compromise of a compromise of a compromise aimed at fulfilling that promise. But “repeal and replace” is a political slogan, not a policy goal. This is a lot of political pain to endure for a bill that won’t improve many peoples’ lives, but will badly hurt millions.

POLLS: America HATES Graham-Cassidy Healthcare Bill

Republicans keep trotting out new plans to take away health care and Americans keep hating them. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, and Ben Mankiewicz, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://www.tytnetwork.com/join
"With their deadline fast approaching, Senate Republicans’ rush to repeal and replace Obamacare remains as unpopular as ever with the public.
Only 24 percent of Americans support Graham-Cassidy, the health care bill Republicans are furiously whipping to pass ahead of September 30, according to a new poll released Thursday by Public Policy Polling. The poll is the first to date of the proposed legislation, which would cripple Obamacare’s exchanges and sharply cut long-term Medicaid spending while also taking billions of funding from blue states that implemented Obamacare and giving it to red ones that did not.
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) has promised that the bill will result in more people having insurance. Most Americans do not believe him. Majorities believe that Graham-Cassidy would instead both raise health care costs for most Americans and result in fewer Americans obtaining coverage. Only 20 percent said they thought the bill would cover more Americans.”*

Republicans Make Their Healthcare Bill Even Worse To Win Over Senate Holdouts

Republican supporters of the healthcare bill in the Senate are dropping like flies, so Republican leadership decided to throw a few extra bonuses into the legislation for the states of the holdouts. This tactic isn’t likely to work, as their opposition is based on the general effects of the bill, not on it lacking any personal incentives. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Republicans in the U.S. Senate only have one week left to pass their disastrous health care law before they have to finalize the budget and get that passed with or without this health care legislation that they have tacked on as kind of an amendment-type thing to the bill. It's not a standalone; it's part of the budget bill. But since they continue to lose Republican support so far with Collins, Murkowski, McCain, and now even Ted Cruz and Rand Paul saying they're probably not going to support this piece of legislation, Republicans in the Senate have decided that if we can't win your vote with good policy, we're going to win it with bribery, and that is exactly what they're doing.
Late Sunday night, Republicans in the Senate came back, started rewriting some portions of this health care law to include massive giveaways in the form of tax breaks to the states where the senators who oppose the legislation come from, specifically, Maine, Alaska, Arizona, possibly even Texas. Basically, what they're trying to do here is say, "If you pass this legislation, we're going to give you a little bit more money for your state. You know, here, it's not a bribe because it's part of the legislation, but once it gets passed, there's all of this money on the table, and I guess you should probably walk away with that and take it back to your state."
Now this, again, perfectly legal form of bribery is one of the lowest insults that you could possibly imagine for these senators who are opposed to the current version of the health care law, because their opposition has nothing to do with the fact that they're not getting anything for their states. It has to do with the fact that they're not completely comfortable with passing a piece of legislation (1) that half the Senate hasn’t even read yet, (2) that the president doesn’t even know what's in it, (3) that doesn’t have a CBO score, and (4) and most importantly, that it's going to kick off 32 million people from their health insurance and result in tens of thousands of deaths by the year 2027 due to people not having health insurance coverage to be able to go treat conditions.
That’s what makes them a little leery to sign on to support this legislation, and if the little bit of money that you're offering them is enough to go ahead and make them sign off on it, I doubt it's going to be enough to save their careers because it's pretty much a given that some of these Republicans who are opposed to it, some of them who are a little bit more moderate, will end up losing their jobs as a result of this vote once it turns out that this thing is as horrible as every analyst who's looked at it has said it is.
This legislation, according to analysis, is going to kill people. People will die from this legislation. That is the intent of it. It's not like, "Oh, accidentally we had some casualties here." Stripping people of their health insurance coverage, 32 million people to be exact, including 20 million children, yeah, they're going to die. If you can't afford your EpiPen because your insurance no longer covers it because you don’t have insurance and you have an allergic reaction, you die. If you have diabetes and you can't afford your insulin because you don’t have health insurance anymore, you die. If you have asthma and you have a severe asthma attack, but you don’t have an inhaler because you couldn’t afford it because you don’t have insurance, you can die.
That’s the bottom line here, folks. That is what we're dealing with. This isn't hyperbole. This isn't conflating the argument. This is what happens, and it still happens to people every single day in this country, and Republicans want it to happen even more, but a few of them have enough sense ... Some, they're only doing it for political reasons. Others, because maybe they're trying to save their legacy. Whatever the reason at this point, this piece of legislation should be the only thing that dies when we talk about health care coverage in the United States.

Republican Healthcare Bill Will Get Less Than 2 Minutes Of Debate Time

Due to a manipulation of Senate rules, Republicans have created a healthcare bill that will only be open for debate on the Senate floor for about 90 seconds – possibly as long as 2 minutes if things get crazy. This bill could strip more than 30 million of their health insurance coverage and destroy Medicaid, and the best the Republicans are willing to give us is 2 minutes. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how this is possible.

Republicans at the US Senate are still working to pass their destructive healthcare bill, specifically the Graham-Cassidy Amendment that would not only repeal the Affordable Care Act, it would put in place a series of provisions that has been called Trumpcare 3.0. Now, you would think that such a huge piece of legislation would get a lot of time to debate. You would think that they would want people to talk about this bill, to understand this bill, to analyze it, and figure out what the hell it's actually going to do to the American public.
And that is why Republicans have used this very specific rule to limit debate on this bill to 90 seconds. That's right, this piece of legislation that has the potential to strip 32 million American citizens of their health insurance is going to be debated for 90 seconds, possibly as long as two minutes. It might get an extra 30 seconds in there if things get really crazy, but they do not have any longer than two minutes to talk about this bill. Why? Because they're using this bill as part of the budget reconciliation act. It is not a necessarily a standalone piece of legislation, they're tacking it into the budget. And unfortunately, time for debate on the budget has completely run out, so they only have two minutes according to their own rules to debate this bill and give the public the facts.
The problem is, most Republicans in the Senate, including those who actually support it, still don't know what's in the actual legislation. Vox did interviews with nine different Republican senators, and not a single one of them could accurately say what was in this legislation. The Democrats don't know because they didn't let them be part of the drafting process. There's been no debate, so nobody brought this to anybody's attention, but the fact of the matter is that Republicans are so desperate to repeal the Affordable Care Act, that they're pushing a piece of legislation that has not been scored by the CBO, that they don't even know what's in, and they're only going to allow us 90 seconds of a floor debate in the US Senate.
What we do know from the piece of legislation is that it would essentially end Medicaid as we know it. Medicaid would be gone. They're going to roll back the Medicaid expansion, cut the funding for it, and then give the money for Medicaid to the states, at which point the states can either chose to spend that money on Medicaid, or anything else that they want. There's no provision tying them to have to spend that money on Medicaid, thereby we can deduce, since Republicans seem to hate Medicaid, that they're not going to spend it on there. 30 million children in the United States and half of all of the birth in these United States are covered by Medicaid. Suddenly, if this piece of legislation passes, 30 million children in the United States no longer have insurance. Half of the births in this country will no longer be covered by any form of insurance.
What is that going to do to our health? It's going to result in more dead children. That's the bottom line. That is the only way to put that. Children won't be able to go to the doctor, they won't be able to get medicine, half the people in this country might not be able to afford to go to a hospital to give birth. They'll have to give birth at home or somewhere else, anywhere else. Turn to more dangerous practices in order to give birth that aren't going to give their children the proper care that they need right after they are born. People will die because of this Republican bill. These idiotic Republican senators don't even know what's in the legislation, and yet they're rushing to ram this down our throats, because they hate President Obama. That is the bottom line here. They want to hurt children because they hate Obama.
